THERE YOU HAVE IT. HAPPY FRIDAY TO. DEMOLITION WORK IS BEGINNING RIGHT NOW ON THE DOWNTOWN PLAZA TO MAKE WAY FOR THE NEW KINGS ARENA. MIKE IS LIVE. THEY JUST LOST A MAJOR PROJECT. WE STARTED AT 5:45 A.M. ON A FRIDAY. THERE WAS A LOT OF ENERGY AND PAP. THERE WERE HUNDREDS OF WORKERS DOWN HERE READY TO GET TO WORK. TAKE A LOOK. ONE OF THOSE WAS SLAMSON. THIS IS THE KICK OFF TO THE BEGINNING OF THE DEMOLITION PROCESS. THIS IS A NEW SPORTS AND ENTERTAINMENT CONCEPT. THIS IS A $437 MILLION ARENA. KEVIN JOHNSON WAS HERE TALKING ABOUT HOW LONG THE ODDS WERE AT ONE POINT TO GET TO THIS PLACE TODAY. THEY WILL BE BILLED THAT ARENA AND BECAUSE OF THAT THE KINGS WILL BE STAYING IN SACRAMENTO. WE TALKED TO THE MAYOR AND CHRIS GRANGER. BEING HERE SYMBOLICALLY, THAT SHOULD SAY HOW HARD WOMEN WORKING. IT IS BIG SYMBOLICALLY. THERE WERE WEEKS WHEN I DID NOT THINK THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN. I WAS FOCUSED MORE ON HOW TO GET ANOTHER MARKET UP AND GOING. I SPENT MULTIPLE MONTHS HERE. I THINK MY BELIEF SYSTEM BEGAN TO TURN. ALL OF THOSE WORKERS AND DOZENS OF PURPLE HARDHATS ARE GONE BECAUSE WORK HAS BEGUN. A LOT OF THE WORK IS HAPPENING IN THE INTERIOR RIGHT NOW. THEY HAVE TO GET READY THE PROCESS OF REMOVING 94,000 TONS OF CONCRETE AND CONSTRUCTION MATERIALS. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR PEOPLE WILL BE TRAVELING THROUGH DOWNTOWN? L STREET WILL BE RESTRIPED. OTHER LANES WILL SHIFT. ALL OF THESE LANES WILL REMAIN OPEN DURING ALL OF THIS. LOOK FOR THE ORIGINAL TRANSIT RIDER ALERTS. IF YOU'RE LOOKING TO CATCH THE BUS, ALL THE BUS STOPS MOVES OVER TO THE CAPITOL MALL. JUST CHECK YOUR SCHEDULE TO MAKE SURE YOU'RE GOING TO THE RIGHT STOP. ALL OF THIS IS EXPECTED TO BE COMPLETED IN 26 TEEN.
